Install libm.a as linker script [BZ #20539]

  Hi,

to avoid static link fail w/o passing additional -lmvec option (while
building with GCC 6.1 and above) this patch makes libm.a installed as
linker script.
Tested on x86_64.  Ok for trunk?

        [BZ #20539]
        * Makerules (install-lib.a): filter out libm.a in case of libmvec build.
        * math/Makefile: added rules for libm.a installation as linker script.

A couple issues.  Don't use cut/paste since it adds some newlines
and the patch won't apply.

Should we use $(install-lib-ldscripts) instead of libm.a here?

Do you need to update rules for building static math tests with
libmvec.a?

I had tried but haven't rich a success.

I haven't added -lmvec explicitly for any static math test so I think no.

Attached corrected version.

Did you add libm.a to install-lib-ldscripts?

Static math test in glibc may fail if the same bug is triggered
with ether new GCC or new test.
